Häfele UK has partnered with Palio by Karndean to bring the range to the KBB market, further expanding its complete interiors offering for studios and designers.
The partnership sees Häfele add luxury vinyl tile (LVT) flooring to its existing portfolio of kitchen, storage, lighting, hardware and appliance solutions, enabling customers to create complete interior spaces from a single supplier.
Palio by Karndean is suitable for use throughout the home, including kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms, as well as utility spaces, living areas and reception spaces.
The collection combines realistic wood and stone designs with straightforward installation. Warm, neutral and cool tones are available across light, medium and dark shades, providing options to complement a wide variety of interior schemes. Häfele will stock 19 SKUs across the Palio Rigid and Palio Core ranges, spanning plank, herringbone and tile formats. A further nine Palio LooseLay SKUs will be available to order.
All three installation systems have been developed with quick and easy fitting in mind, while the flooring itself is waterproof and designed to withstand the demands of everyday use.
Häfele will also stock complementary scotias for projects where flooring is being fitted without removing existing skirting boards.
Customers will be able to add Palio by Karndean products to their usual Häfele orders, with stocked products benefiting from Häfele’s next day delivery service. Point-of-sale materials and sample suites will also be available to help studios guide customers through the design and specification process.
Häfele will also provide customers with guidance on the different Palio formats, fitting options and product benefits, helping studios specify the right flooring solution for individual projects with confidence.
Isabel James, Category Manager for Furniture Equipment at Häfele UK, said: “Our customers are increasingly looking beyond individual products and thinking about the complete space, so we need to evolve with them. Flooring is a big part of that finished environment so is a natural next step for us to move into.
“Palio by Karndean has the brand strength, quality and design credentials we were looking for in a partner, backed by the expertise and reputation of one of the industry’s most established flooring manufacturers. The range is particularly well suited to the KBB market, and we’re looking forward to seeing how customers respond now it’s available through us.
“Our focus is always on what we can do to make Häfele an even more valuable partner to our KBB studios. By broadening the categories they can access through us, we can help them take more of a project from initial design through to the finished space, while creating new opportunities for them to grow the value of every project.”
